A new niece

I have a new baby niece! My husband's brother and his partner have another beautiful little girl ... which is very exciting and she is very cute from the photos. Hopefully I will get to see her in the flesh before too long - it's been a while since we've had any babies around! My brother in law is my age and I must admit I feel way too old to be dealing with a tiny little baby, but I am probably aged beyond my years. (And what made me so old? CHILDREN)

Anyway I made her a wee quilt, which I shall post this week now they have chosen a name (although they can't agree on how to spell it apparently, I just made a stab on the label and if it's wrong well, yay for mad aunties). Not a great photo but you get the idea.

This is the backing fabric - birds! I like the green on this, it's very fresh.

Well, as usual I am filled with admiration and awe. My baby quilt bits are laid on the spare bed until such time as I feel strong enough to try sewing them together. It'll take me a long time, with my tongue sticking out. Sigh.
